We combine analytical understanding of resonant dynamics in two-planet systems with machine-learning techniques to train a model capable of robustly classifying stability in compact multiplanet systems over long timescales of [Formula: see text] orbits. Our Stability of Planetary Orbital Configurations Klassifier (SPOCK) predicts stability using physically motivated summary statistics measured in integrations of the first [Formula: see text] orbits, thus achieving speed-ups of up to [Formula: see text] over full simulations. This computationally opens up the stability-constrained characterization of multiplanet systems.
